VIP Tour Group Reveals Top 5 List of Romantic Galapagos Honeymoon Cruises for 2014
Atlanta (PRWEB) November 21, 2013 -- Every year, approximately 2.5 million weddings take place and virtually all newlyweds, close to 99%, will embark on a honeymoon. While traditional honeymoon locales like the Caribbean and Mexico are perennially popular, many of today’s travel-savvy couples are seeking new destinations, like Machu Picchu and the Galapagos Islands, which offer once-in-a-lifetime experiences. As a guide for these romantic journeys, VIP Tour Group has released its Top 5 List of Romantic Galapagos Honeymoon Cruises for 2014.
“We are clearly seeing a trend towards more upscale Yachts in the Galapagos yet keeping to the exploration themes of getting the most of an eco adventure. Our Top 5 List includes Galapagos Yachts that accommodate only 16 to 50 passengers’, offer romantic settings and distant off-the-beaten-path destinations,” explains Michael Eiseman, CEO of VIP Tour Group and planner of over 800 honeymoons over the past 12 years. “Some couples simply want to go somewhere their friends have never been, while others are motivated by the desire for personal enrichment.”
This growing interest in honeymoon travel beyond the norm can be traced to a number of influential factors: the increase in average age of brides and grooms means couples have more travel experience and greater disposable income prior to marriage; a wealth of information on the Internet has brought distant locations closer to home; and the surge in new, luxury-level life experiences in faraway places has made these lesser-known spots more alluring.
To assist progressive couples on their quest to find up-and-coming honeymoon destinations, VIP Tour Group presents its Top 5 List of Romantic Galapagos Honeymoon Cruises for 2014:
